Now looking at potential foul play by George North...........................biting!!!! 95th minute!

Correction. A bite ON North. Inconclusive.
 
Now in the 15th minute overtime, France camped on Welsh line, God knows how many 5 yard scrums and still Wales hold out conceding penalty after penalty...
 
I played Rugby over 54 years ago - don't remember any possibility of 20 minutes extra time?. What has happened in this short time

Great defending with a man short for ten minutes, gamesmanship, fusspot refereeing, video playbacks, the final threat of a penalty try and pressure told in the end. The less glamourous but totally absorbing side of the game...

The Irish are, as I predicted, giving the hated English a right mauling in Dublin.
Ireland's forwards are running the show, whilst England look nervous and keep kicking possession away.

Not unexpected, if we can weather the early storm this should be a cracker...
 
Not hated at all Col.
Ireland with 72% possession but only 7 points up. England looked rattled at the moment.

Hated is a very strong word Col. If we hated you as much as you think, there wouldn't be 112,000 of your countrymen living here. We have far more in common with you than say other European countries and vice versa. Enjoy the game and may the best team win. Good luck to England.
 
I think Ireland have the best scrum and line out in the championship. Not saying the best players just the best set piece.
 
10-3 Ireland at half time, I think England will be delighted to only be 7 points down. They were under pressure and came through against France and Wales and Eddie will certainly let them know what is expected in the 2nd half. England need to start the 2nd half strongly, all to play for...

Certainly the Irish forwards are completely running the game. Their line out is superb.
The way Ireland are playing the game is there for them. As good as Ireland are playing, I think the pressure of the World record and Grand Slam has really got to England.

The game is far from over.
First score in second half will be massive.
 
At least 6 high ish tackles now from England. They're tackling on the edge.
